The district participates in the Interdistrict Public School Choice Program at Folsom Elementary School, having been approved on November 2, 1999, as one of the first ten districts statewide to participate in the program.[3] Seats in the program for non-resident students are specified by the district and are allocated by lottery, with tuition paid for participating students by the New Jersey Department of Education.[4]
As of the 2009-10 school year, the district's lone school had an enrollment of 401 students and 30 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.37.[1]
The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "CD", the sixth highest of eight groupings.

From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.[5]
For grades 9 - 12, students attend Hammonton High School, in Hammonton as part of a sending/receiving relationship with the Hammonton Public Schools, alongside students from Waterford Township, who attend as part of an agreement with the Waterford Township School District.[6][7]
